All military equipment not yet delivered to Ukraine has been put on hold, and future assistance is now uncertain. Trump has tasked Pete Hegseth with overseeing the aid freeze, the official said.<\/p>\n
The fallout from Zelensky\u2019s meeting with Trump and Vice President JD Vance has cast doubt on Ukraine\u2019s continued military support. The discussion reportedly ended on a sour note, with Trump instructing Zelensky to leave the White House, canceling a planned lunch, a mineral deal signing, and a joint press conference.<\/p>\n
Trump Defends His Ukraine Stance Amid Backlash<\/p>\n
Following media criticism over his treatment of Zelensky, Trump defended his record on Ukraine, posting on Truth Social:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only President who gave none of Ukraine\u2019s land to Putin\u2019s Russia is President Donald J. Trump. Remember that when the weak and ineffective Democrats criticize, and the Fake News gladly spreads their lies!\u201d<\/p>\n
National Security Advisor Mike Waltz reinforced Trump\u2019s stance during an interview on Fox News Channel\u2019s America\u2019s Newsroom Monday morning, warning that the days of unlimited U.S. support for Ukraine were over.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe American people\u2019s patience is not unlimited, their wallets are not unlimited, and our stockpiles and munitions are not unlimited,\u201d Waltz said. \u201cThe time to talk is now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Waltz criticized Zelensky for failing to show a willingness to negotiate a peace deal with Russia, arguing that time is not on Ukraine\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
\u201cSuccess looks like President Zelensky sitting down and discussing the terms of peace,\u201d Waltz said. \u201cWhat became clear in that meeting is that he\u2019s not ready for peace at all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zelensky\u2019s Frustration and Abrupt Exit<\/p>\n
During the Oval Office meeting, tensions escalated when Vance emphasized the need for Trump to engage diplomatically with Russia.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat kind of diplomacy, JD, are you talking about? What do you mean?\u201d Zelensky reportedly asked, after listing instances where Putin had violated past agreements.<\/p>\n
Vance fired back:<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m talking about the kind of diplomacy that\u2019s going to stop the destruction of your country, Mr. President,\u201d he said, accusing Zelensky of disrespecting Trump by voicing opposition to a peace deal in front of American media.<\/p>\n
After the confrontation, Trump abruptly ended the meeting and dismissed Zelensky from the White House, canceling scheduled events.<\/p>\n
Later, Trump doubled down on his stance, stating on social media:<\/p>\n
\u201cHe can come back when he is ready for peace.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zelensky\u2019s Emergency Trip to London<\/p>\n
Following the failed Washington talks, Zelensky made an emergency trip to London, where he met with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other European leaders.<\/p>\n
Starmer underscored the U.K.\u2019s continued support, signaling a possible shift in Europe\u2019s role in aiding Ukraine.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe U.K. is prepared to back this with boots on the ground and planes in the air, together with others,\u201d Starmer said. \u201cEurope must do the heavy lifting, but to succeed, this effort must have strong U.S. backing.\u201d<\/p>\n
With U.S. aid in limbo, Zelensky now faces an uphill battle in securing military support as European leaders scramble to reassess their commitments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
